From. Mr. Tom Brown.
Kindest Attention:
My name is Mr. Tom Brown, I am from Nederland’s .I have been diagnosed with Esophageal cancer. It
has defiled all forms of medical treatment, and right now I have only about a few months to live,
according to medical experts. I have not particularly lived my life so well, as I never really
cared for anyone (not even myself) but my business. Though I am very rich, I was never generous, I
was always hostile to people and only focused on my business as that was the only thing I cared
for. But now I regret all this as I now know that there is more to life than just wanting to have
or make all the money in the world. I believe when God gives me a second chance to come to this
world I would live my life a different way from how I have lived it.
Now that God has called me, I have willed and given most of my property and assets to my immediate
and extended family members as well as few close friends. I want God to be merciful to me and
accept my soul so, I have decided to give aims to charity organizations, as I want this to be one
of the last good deeds I do on earth. So far, I have distributed money to some charity
organizations in the U.A.E, Somalia and Malaysia. Now that my health has deteriorated so badly, I
cannot do this myself any more.
I once asked members of my family to close one of my accounts and distribute the money which I have
there to charity organization in Bulgaria and Pakistan; they refused and kept the money to
themselves.
Hence, I do not trust them any more, as they seem not to be contended with what I have left for
them. The last of my money which no one knows of is the huge cash deposit of Seventeen Million
United States Dollars ($17, 000, 000, 00) that I have with an Asset Management Company in Europe
which I deposited as Antique and Valuables. I will want you to help me collect this deposit and
dispatch it to charity organizations.
N/B: Kindly note that 20% of this funds must go to the tsunami victims, 50% to other Charity
Organization and 30% for your effort and time. I cannot talk with you on the phone due to my health
situation, as I am using my Lap Top Computer to communicate with you. You should respond to this
e-mail if you are interested in carrying out this assignment on my behalf.
Urgent Reply Needed.
God be with you.
Mr. Tom Brown.

Since you’re here …
we have a small favour to ask. More people are visting Scamdex and Scamalot than ever but advertising revenues are falling fast and we have no 'product' to sell.
And unlike many informational websites, we haven’t put up a paywall or membership barrier – we want to keep our site as open as we can.
So you can see why we need to ask for your help. Scamdex/Scamalot websites takes a lot of time, money and hard work to keep running. We do this because we
hate to see our fellow humans getting scammed out of their hard-earned money by low-lives.
